We have either gone through a rip in our time-space continuum, or someone is playing April Fool on us a bit too late! I'm hoping for the former; that way I can see Giant go off as it did in the past.......or, will in the future.......like it did before.......gosh this is confusing.......(grin!).

Also, the Indicator seems to have a shorter lead time on Beehive in the winter than it does in the summer. From my experiences watching it during the winter months, Beehive frequently seems to be on a "hair trigger," with longish intervals and high water levels in the system, including the west bubbler and the Second (or "Close to cone") Indicator. I have watched Beehive give frequent, heavy, massive, voluminous, "Herb Warren" type surges for some time prior to an eruption. On occasion, one of these splashes will be heavy enough to touch it off. This results in a "no Indicator" eruption. The "Second Indicator" also seems to have been mostly a winter phenomenon in recent years. I have watched it fill and overflow with light bubbling, and it is then that it may begin to erupt. I have also seen it start and stop numerous times before finally erupting continuously. Whether it begins to erupt continuously immediately or after several attempts, the "Second Indicator" will usually be joined by the main Indicator after some period of time. Once Beehive's eruption is underway, the Second Indicator's eruption becomes more forceful, ejecting a thin jet of water to the height of Beehive's cone. Having some experience with watching geysers in the winter, I thought I'd share what I know and remember.

It finally went into the mail yesterday, December 4. The reason for the delay was a fire that occurred at our editors' home on October 1. No one including critters was hurt. The computer that the Dunns use to edit the issues was smoke damaged, which required treatment. They had it returned just recently. They are living in a temporary residence while their home and contents are being restored and cleaned. More details are in the Letter from the Editors. I think I can speak for all of us by saying THANK YOU to Tom and Genean for their efforts to complete this issue while under extreme duress. I'm also grateful to everyone who helped them put it together. Hopefully life will return to something resembling normalcy soon. I wish you all a peaceful holiday season. Thanks, Happy Holidays!

This has not been a systematic activity, and the early soundings, starting in 1951, were curiosity driven and opportunistic. However, soundings of the two hot lakelets at Waimangu were done more persistently and the methods evolved. A scientific paper was prepared describing the work, and posslibly because of its rather unusual topic it was selected for reproduction on Te Ara web-site (Royal Society of New Zealand on-line encyclopedia). For anyone who might be interested to read this paper the URL is http://www.rsnz.org/publish/nzjgg/notable/Keam1980.pdf Note that the bathymetric maps as presented in this paper are very much simplified and that the full maps of the bathymetry of Frying Pan Lake and Inferno Crater Lake are on large separate individual sheets. In the references in the on-line paper they are stated to be "in press" because this descriptive paper was prepared before the maps appeared.

I haven't gotten to a computer often and so haven't posted week-old geyser times, but yesterday (12/10) Grand was 1354 i.e. (1C), and Riverside was 1438 n.s. On the 9th Riverside was 1331 i.e. and Daisy 1419. On the 8th Lone Star was 1139 i.e. early (it ended 1203). I hope to download Grand at least on Friday and see what it's been doing lately.

After staring at those two pictures of Pearl, which are taken from the same angle (just different crops), some questions came up: The sinter shelf color changed from white to brownish yellow, too. Are these signs of cooler water so cyanobacteria can grow there? Or is it a mineral deposit? What are the reasons for the color change?

In 1951 Frying Pan Lake at Waimangu was almost an indigo colour and the water was clear enough for a submerged crater rim to be quite clearly visible. By the late 1960s the water had assumed a greener tinge and was much cloudier. Only once in recent years have I seen it clear again and that state did not last. The hinterland at Waimangu was turned into farms in the late 1950s and I can believe a suggestion made to me that the effect has been produced by run-off of fertiliser that had been liberally spread there to increase agricultural productivity in what formerly had been a very lightly vegetated pumice soil. Inferno Crater Lake changes cyclically in colour in synchronism with its level changes - when the water is rising it is very turbid and a very pale brown colour; during a main flow it is blue but mostly difficult to see because of the dense steam-clouds hiding it; during the long recession after a main flow it clear and the most intense turquoise colour. The muds being deposited within the Inferno Crater basin were brilliantly snow-white in the 1950s. Now they are a rather less attractive light brown. (Once when I was conducting an experiment to test its possible interconnection with Frying Pan Lake, Inferno Crater Lake was artificially turned red with Rhodamine B flourescent dye. Afterwards the dye adhered to the mud flocculating in the water, and deposited out as a distinct band which persisted for a few years. It all disappeared long ago.) Those of us who were privileged to be taken in Rick Hutchinson's boat out onto Grand Prismatic Spring saw some of the clearest water in any thermal spring that I have ever seen. The rocks at the bottom started off in the shallower regions appearing green, and gradually as the depth increased they appeared to be bluer and bluer, and ultimately becoming almost indigo and the bottom became invisible. The contrast with the waters in Frying Pan Lake and Inferno Crater Lake was very distinct. There is a very green lake in one of the craters of the Waiotapu thermal area near Waimangu. This lake has the Maori name Rotowhero which means "Red Lake". One should not suppose that the name was applied by a colour-blind person, because there are significant deposits of red mud around, and the supposition is that the name was originally given when this mud had been stirred up in the lake waters.

It so happened that a unique opportunity presented itself, and we took the chance to carry out the experiment - if it had worked, then we would have proved something, if it did not (and there were numerous reasons why the chances of success would be marginal) then it simply meant that something a little more sophisticated would need to be tried. Actually we already had proof that there is some sort of fluid connection between Inferno Crater Lake and Frying Pan Lake because the outflows/level movements in the two lakelets work in antiphase. We were defeated with the dye experiment partly because the precise location and depth of the main vent of Inferno Crater were not nearly so precisely known as they are now, and our dye input occurred too far away from it - We were trying to get the dye to go down with the massive downflow of water that followed the cessation of the main discharge stage. If we had been able to locate the dye injection site right into the main vent then Inferno Crater Lake itself would have become only slightly discoloured, but instead the whole lakelet turned an amazingly intense red. Later we were able to conduct some laboratory experiments on the temperatures at which Rhodamine B became degraded, and it seems that even had we been able to get the dye taken down into the vent the temperature in the supposed aquifer joining the two lakes was likely to have exceeded this degradation temperature. We later considered using short half-life radioactive isotopes, or, alternatively, uncommon stable ions, or uncommon stable isotopes, but our efforts were diverted into other investigations and I simply did not get around to trying any of these other methods of directly establishing a connection.

Actually you met my wife Meladie and me last summer in early August as you were heading up the trail to Artemisia. You and I had a brief discussion about major and minor eruptions of Atomizer. Thank you again. Please know that Meladie and I are praying for you, your daughter, and your grand children as you face this incredible loss. We lost Angela our 33 year old daughter on October 13. Her death was completely unexpected and totally shocking. She was perfectly healthy the night before and also when her husband Ted left for work at 6:30 that morning. He was notified when she failed to arrive at work. He rushed home to find her slumped on the floor with a mirror in one hand and her mascara in the other. The Medical Examiner was unable to determine a cause of death. We rightfully expect that our children will bury us but obviously not always. We have found the support of friends to be immensely helpful. We have felt strength and peace resulting from the prayers of the faithful. God's love exceeds our anger and grief. Meladie and will have been and will continue to pray for you. We covet your prayers also. Perhaps we will meet in the park again next summer and continue to bear one another's burdens.

In the meantime--Those of us driving long distances had good driving conditions. Family will be flying in this weekend and out of Tuesday, but it sounds like weather breaks will be sufficient such that there won't be problems. For those of you checking news on-line, Erin decided not to run the obituary in the Bozeman Chronicle until Sunday and Monday. She will also have it placed in the Omaha newspaper, since Jeff grew up in Omaha, but I'm not certain when that will run. I don't have the branch, or the address, or the exact name on the account, but one of Jeff's friends is setting up an account for Cassidy and Connor at Big Sky Western Bank for people who wish to make donations. The details will be in the obituary. Information for people who might be thinking about attending the service: Some people have asked for this information, and I'm using the geyser listserv as the most efficient means of getting it out, similar to a telephone tree. The funeral service will be at 2 pm in Bozeman at Doffin-Nelson funeral home. There will be a reception following the service at the First Lutheran Church, which is, I think, just across the street or down the block from the funeral home. Viewing at the funeral home will be from 2-4 on Sunday afternoon (with members of the family present) and from 4-6 without members of the famly. Again, thank you all for your support.

JEFFREY L. HOWARD Jeffrey L. Howard, 36, died unexpectedly of heart failure on Tuesday, Dec. 12, 2006. He was born Oct. 21, 1970, in Omaha, Neb., to Roger and Mary (Lauderdale) Howard. In 1992, he moved to the Bozeman area where he met and fell in love with his wife, Erin. They were married on Sept. 9, 2000. The joys of his life were his four-year-old daughter and two-year-old son. He was constantly amazed at how cool it was to be a dad and would often say that being a husband and a father was the most rewarding part of his life. Jeff spent many years working at Bare's Stove and Spa, most recently as the store manager. His work there was not just a job to him; it was truly part of his heart and soul. Jeff's passions included fishing, playing pool, reading and rooting for his beloved football team, the Nebraska Cornhuskers. He is survived by his wife, Erin (Stephens); daughter, Cassidy; son, Connor; parents, Roger and Mary Howard; brother, Mike; sister, Kris; and grandparents, George and Leona Lauderdale. He was also blessed to have a large, loving extended family and a wide circle of close friends. He touched many lives. Jeff was truly loved and will be greatly missed. Visitation at Dokken-Nelson Funeral Service will be from 2 to 6 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 17, with the family present from 2 to 4 p.m. Funeral Services will be held at 2 p.m. Monday, Dec. 18, in the Dokken-Nelson Sunset Chapel. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be sent to a fund for the children of Jeffrey L. Howard at Big Sky Western Bank, 106 E. Babcock St., Bozeman, MT 59715.

Message-ID: <4586D906.1030001@sisna.com> In today's Salt Lake Deseret News, this article got my attention: http://deseretnews.com/dn/view/0,1249,650215993,00.html Wayne ------------------------------ Yellowstone's caldera rising *Associated Press* YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK, Wyo. --- A geologist says some parts of the continually shifting, collapsed volcano at the center of the park are swelling unusually fast. Bob Smith, one of the leading researchers into Yellowstone's geology, presented some of his findings at the American Geological Union meeting in San Francisco this week. Smith and other geologists from the University of Utah are particularly interested in two subterranean lava domes deep beneath the Yellowstone caldera. "We've gone to this really pronounced, and I would say unprecedented, uplift of the caldera," he said. But he said any talk of an eruption would be far-fetched. In fact, it's typical for Yellowstone's caldera to rise and fall. Scientists say it's been happening for at least 15,000 years, with some shifts of more than 10 feet. Portions of the caldera rose more than 3 feet between 1923 and 1984 and then dropped nearly 8 inches from 1985 to 1995. Measurements in 1995 and 1996 showed the caldera rising again before starting to fall in 1997. The latest upward motion has been unusual for its speed. Using data collected on the ground and from satellites, scientists say the Mallard Lake Dome, west of Yellowstone Lake's West Thumb, has risen 4 centimeters a year since the middle of 2004. Meanwhile, the Sour Creek Dome north of Fishing Bridge has risen about 6 centimeters a year. Smith said an infusion of magma may be heating up groundwater and causing the ground to bulge. "It's like inflating the balloon, but the balloon is capped," he said. -------------------------- -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Candles are a BAD THING that will burn you out of house and home if given the opportunity. Also, seed derived oils such as linseed oil will definitely combust spontaneously. If you must use those types of oils there are specifically manufactured storage cans for the used rags, but putting in a jar with water is not a bad way to stay safe. I would also like to take this opportunity to remind everyone having one to water their Christmas tree. They are like solidified gasoline when they dry out.

When the signs were replaced on 12/04/06 (by Carolyn) they were both placed on the platform. Sometime between 12/11/06 and 12/15/06, one of the signs moved from the platform to down below. It was face up, which makes the process of movement a mystery. David speculated that Giant may have actually erupted during that time and the other sign didn't move due to being frozen in place when the initial wave of water came out. Or it may not have erupted. I guess we will know for sure when the recording device is downloaded (paging Jens Day.....) I waited until the listserv postings showed up to send this, in case Carolyn had posted it, since she has first hand knowledge, and I'm just passing on David's speculations, because he still hasn't signed up for the listserv. As for Mike Newcomb's picture, it looks like winter steam on a cold winter day to me. Hopefully I'll get off work with a little daylight left today to hit the basin.

When the signs were replaced on 12/04/06 (by Carolyn) they were both placed on the platform. Sometime between 12/11/06 and 12/15/06, one of the signs moved from the platform to down below. It was face up, which makes the process of movement a mystery. David speculated that Giant may have actually erupted during that time and the other sign didn't move due to being frozen in place when the initial wave of water came out. Or it may not have erupted. I guess we will know for sure when the recording device is downloaded (paging Jens Day.....) > I waited until the listserv postings showed up to send this, in case Carolyn had posted it, since she has first hand knowledge, and I'm just passing on David's speculations, because he still hasn't signed up for the listserv. > As for Mike Newcomb's picture, it looks like winter steam on a cold winter day to me. > Hopefully I'll get off work with a little daylight left today to hit the basin. > Karen Low > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?

I'd watched a hot period Saturday that started at 15:11, that I did not get a duration on because I was watching from the bike path and it was steamy. Barry Leedy checked Giant around 1500 today and it had erupted, washing only the danger sign. This lends some certainty to the theory that it had erupted between 12/11 and 12/15 since that possible eruption also only washed the danger sign.

I spoke with them this morning, and what they saw was from the back boardwalk at Biscuit, and was they think near the end of the eruption. They were impressed by the very dark muddy water, which they estimated at 20 feet tall. The time was about 1305 on 12/26. That same day we got a Lone Pine report at 1145 VR, a Skinny Man sometime that day, Artemisia at 145 VR, and Oblong at 1430 VR. We even saw a glimpse of Beehive behind the Old Faithful eruption at 1052 n.s. as I recall, so we're hoping for some daytime eruptions. I can't remember if I've mentioned that Will Yavorsky at Grant reported the mid-area West Thumb pools including Ledge and Percolating all being way down just before opening day. No changes have been seen at Black Pool or Abyss (so far). Carolyn at Old Faithful _________________________________________________________________ Fixing up the home?
